And as for Schoop, sorry, don't see it with the guy. He didn't look so hot in his first go at the critical AA jump.
So Law might think it's too much for Butler... I think it's far, far too little. And Royals fans wouldn't be alone in that.

Rick Peterson using his biomechanical research and psychological principles to help pitchers improve their pitching motions has helped Tillman a lot.
